Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Parkinson's disease symptoms, including gait disturbances and speech impairment, substantially impact quality of life. This n-of-1 study examined the effects of deep brain stimulation (DBS) frequency on a 54-year-old man with Parkinson's disease. The participant conceived and led the study, embedding patient insight within the project design and execution. The impacts of three DBS frequencies were assessed using markerless motion capture for gait, voice recording for speech analysis, and Kinarm robotic tasks of upper limb coordination and cognitive assessment. The study found that DBS frequency has a clinically significant impact on multiple symptoms, including gait, rigidity, speech and cognitive-motor ability.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
